In a quiet reverie that she may have only rarely achieved in the story of her married life, Isolde journeys into her inner world as she sips wine or perhaps water from her large ornate cup. This beautiful Queen of Cups fascinates the observer with her reflective beauty, as the red passion of her hair flows loosely over the green fertility of her long gown with impressive billowing sleeves. Isolde rests in a high back wooden thrown intertwined with Celtic knot work, displaying the intricate and balanced creativity of her inner world. It may be perhaps the way she is sitting or the indulgence of her passionate tastes, but there is a hint that this Queen may be pregnant.

In the landscape behind her, a sandy shore soon gives way to the unconscious depths of a fertile green ocean, and in the starry sky the moon burns brightly, displaying Isolde's intuitive and emotional depths.
